This lovely 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers an unparalleled yard that opens directly to the spectacular Corte Madera Creek reserve, creating a magical, tranquil and private setting to revel in daily.  Sensational hiking is accessed from your own backyard path that leads to the two-mile open space waterside trail yet the home retains its privacy from the creek side, a truly unique offering.

Three generously scaled bedrooms brightly illuminated by natural light, all with hints of verdant scenery, offer peaceful retreats to begin and end each day.  An updated full bath has a quartz counter atop a naturally hued vanity cabinet, chic circular vanity mirror, and a striking azure glass tile backsplash strip that punctuates the space as it extends through the sleek white tiled walk-in shower.  The second full bath continues the harmonious aesthetic themes of ship-lap cabinet doors, glass accent tiles and polished white tiles in a soothing pastel palette. 

The extraordinary backyard seamlessly extends to the Corte Madera Creek banks, creating a yard that feels like a vast private park, filled with a medley of flourishing colorful plantings, mature trees and anchored in the horizon by Marin’s iconic Mt. Tam.  An enchanting wisteria vined gazebo provides shade over the sizable flagstone patio offering an idyllic setting to dine al fresco and marvel at the magnificent scenery that abounds, presenting a dream-like enviable outdoor dining room. Sit in serene solitude on the charming bench patio or follow the flagstone pathway to access the waterside habitat.
